Construction at our house today. Our downstairs toilet leaked, so it is getting replaced, along with the floor in the bathroom and hall. If you look at the picture carefully, you can see where about one foot of the wall is cut away due to water damage. Hopefully this will be done in a week.

Today I went outside and raked a few leaves, for the first time since my knee sprain last Monday. I am much improved, but the knee still hurts when I stand.

As part of the celebration of our 40th anniversary, we took Jim and Kathy out to 'conveyor belt' sushi at Kura. They even had robots to deliver soft drinks!

Interesting that FB is causing soem of Heather's posts to disappear. So I'm cross-posting here. I'll continue to do that until FB shows it is completely useless. BTW, Felon's numbers on what other charge us are crazy wrong.

Dumb economic policy that increases burdens on many Americans who can't afford more burdens and which, in the short run, will hurt American car production.

Yesterday had a delightful time playing with fellow Irish amateur musicians at the Brookmont Market. Got a bit chilly at the end.
